ASP vs. CGI?

In ASP and CGI, which one would be executed more fast and has the better
execution efficiency in IIS?
And how about writing CGI in VB?

*groan*

Which is better, peanut butter or honey?

These questions do absolutely nothing except start religious flame wars.

Search the web.

And, just like peanut butter and honey, they're not mutually
exclusive. :)

There is that option.

Honey is good in tea and in graham crackers. Peanut butter is a bit weird.

What do you know how to program in? Perl? Cool, go CGI. VB? Cool, go
ASP. Your ISP is Linux/Unix, you say? Cool, go CGI. What? They've got
ChiliSoft? Oh, well, then go ASP. But you don't know VB? Oh, then go CGI.
Wait, you bought an VBScript book? ASP's the thing for you.

Leverage what you got Laser...since in most cases the server is going to
process stuff a lot faster than your users will ever see stuff in their
browser, it hardly matters.

Exactly.

Let's say an ASP page handles a certain task in 0.5 seconds. And CGI takes
0.6 seconds. However, your knowledge is in CGI.

Is it worth it to take the learning curve hit, switch all of your code over
to ASP, to gain 0.1 seconds that no human is ever going to notice? And
introduce the risk of bugs or other unexpected behavior?

Now, a lot of the JSP sites I've been to might be able to take advantage of
a switch. But I'm betting it's the coding style, hardware, or database
limitations that is causing the slowdown, not a technology choice. Anybody
can make a particular technology perform poorly or incorrectly, and it takes
surprisingly little effort.

Aaron, thank you for guiding me.
Now, I'm planning developing an Application using Classic ASP. And, I've
once heard that, in ASP, JScript is a flexible script language, but takes
the lower execution efficiency than VBScript does. I wonder if it is true,
since I have learned both of these two script languages and have to make a
choice.
